["Konstantin Boudnik (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9244?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13562016#comment-13562016 ] 

Konstantin Boudnik commented on HADOOP-9244:
--------------------------------------------

I've moved the issues to Common project.

As for the combined switch of the Servlet API 3.0 + Jetty7: I am for it, but considering the stable state of 2.0.3 it might be somewhat a disruptive change; but it seems totally fine for 3.0 line considering the time frames, etc. Don't you think?

> Please update the servlet-api jar from 2.5 to javax.servlet 3.0 via Maven:
> <dependency>
>         <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
>         <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
>         <version>3.0.1</version>
>         <scope>provided</scope>
> </dependency>
> I am running a 2.0.3 dev-cluster and can confirm compatibility. I have removed the servlet-api-2.5.jar file and replaced it with javax.servlet-3.0.jar file. I am using javax.servlet-3.0 because it implements methods that I use for a filter, namely the HttpServletResponse.getStatus() method.
> I believe it is a gain to have this dependency as it allows more functionality and has so far proven to be backwards compatible.
